These words touched Old Master Lu’s heart.
He laughed and said, “Jia Jia, after you left, I haven’t found anyone who can say such nice words and make me as happy as you do.”

Fu Yujia said generously, “That’s because I’ve been to the Lu family many times since I was young. I only learned how to speak like this after listening to Grandpa and Grandma Lu’s guidance.”
These words were even more delightful to hear.
After Old Master Fu and Fu Yujia left, Old Madam Lu said, “It looks like Jia Jia hasn’t let go of Heting.”
“That’s inevitable. Back then, she was deeply in love with Heting and tried her best. Unfortunately, Heting refused to be with her. Even when you were sick, he would rather choose someone at will than be with Jia Jia. At that time, I felt that he was quite responsible. Since he didn’t like her, he didn’t want to hold her back. But now, it seems...” Old Master Lu didn’t want to belittle Su Bei, but compared to her, it was indeed a little difficult for Su Bei to compare to Fu Yujia be it her character, family background, or appearance.
Old Madam Lu said, “Forget it. We already have Da Bao and Gun Gun. What’s the point of thinking so much? Jia Jia is such a good woman. She’ll definitely be able to find someone more suitable for her than Heting.”
“What if Jia Jia still has feelings for Heting?” Old Master Lu brought it up.

The two of them suddenly fell silent for a long time.
...
Su Bei received an unknown call.
It was an unfamiliar voice on the other end, but she seemed to have heard it somewhere before. “Su Bei, are you free tonight?”
“Are you Grandpa Huo?” Su Bei finally remembered that she had heard this voice in the hospital that night.
“I didn’t expect you to remember me. I want to see you. Can you come to the Huo family’s residence?”
“Why are you looking for me, Grandpa Huo?” Su Bei felt that it was not a good choice to meet him rashly.
Grandpa Huo smiled. “I also invited Heting. I wanted to ask you if you’d come as well. If you and Heting come together, you’ll feel more at ease, right?”
“Okay, in that case, I’ll go over with Heting tonight,” Su Bei agreed.
She wondered why Old Master Huo was looking for her.
There were no night scenes to film tonight. After the afternoon shoot, Su Bei packed up and was ready to leave.
Lu Heting came to pick her up and the two of them went to the Huo family.
Huo Zhong was the first to arrive. When he received Old Master Huo’s call, he did not think much of it. However, Old Master Huo treated him well. All these years, he and his mother were overseas and his father did not care much about him. His livelihood was difficult. However, Old Master Huo often helped him out. He had to repay this favor.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw another luxury car driving over. Huo Zhong looked at the car and saw Lu Weijian getting out of it while looking energetic.
Huo Zhong had never seen Lu Weijian in person, but he could still figure out some clues about him from his face.
As soon as Lu Weijian got out of the car, he saw this person. He strode over and said, “Are you here to see Grandpa too?”
“He asked me to come. I can’t possibly refuse to come, right?” Huo Zhong said casually.
Lu Weijian couldn’t be bothered to talk to him anymore.
However, they all knew very well that the Huo family had been having a difficult time recently. It was mainly because Old Master Huo was currently sick and could not manage the family business. The Huo family was also very big and had many branches. Everyone had different thoughts and was about to fall apart.
The two of them suddenly saw a car driving over in front of them. Their eyes lit up. “Sister Bei Bei!”
“Su Bei!”
They rushed over at the same time and opened the car door for her. “Sister Bei Bei!”
Huo Zhong pushed Lu Weijian away and shouted enthusiastically, “Su Bei! It’s me!”
Su Bei immediately saw Lu Weijian and Huo Zhong. She knew that Old Master Huo wouldn’t let her off so easily tonight.
“Sister Bei Bei, it’s been hard on you. I don’t know why Grandpa asked you to come, but don’t worry. No matter what Grandpa says, I’ll cover for you!” Lu Weijian immediately promised.
Huo Zhong also patted his chest and promised, “Su Bei, me too. Grandpa must have something to tell us. But no matter what it is, as long as you say the word, I’ll do anything you ask of me!”
Before Su Bei could say anything, a pair of legs in shiny designer leather shoes stretched out of the car, followed by Lu Heting’s long and straight legs.
He walked out and placed his palm on Su Bei’s waist naturally. His aura seemed to be announcing that he was here for Su Bei, so it was unnecessary for others to meddle.
“Brother!” Lu Weijian immediately smiled.
Huo Zhong pursed his lips. Although he had acknowledged Da Bao, he was still a distance away from acknowledging Lu Heting!
It was impossible for Da Bao to inherit Lu Heting’s intelligence and hand speed! Even if Da Bao was not Su Bei’s biological son, he must have gotten influenced by Su Bei!
“Let’s go in.”
...
At the Huo family’s residence.
Old Master Huo was lying on a medical bed. His loyal butler was serving him medicine and pouring water for him.
“Old Master, please drink some more of this Chinese medicine,” the butler advised.
After taking two sips, Old Master Huo couldn’t drink anymore. He waved his hand and said, “I’m not drinking anymore. My body is already in this state. I’m old and have to accept my fate.”
“Old Master, the doctor said that as long as you take the medicine, there won’t be a problem. Don’t say that.”
“I know my own body best.”
The butler saw him like this and was anxious. Old Master Huo’s illness had been lingering for a long time and he had not recovered. A few days ago, he had even gone on his deathbed a few times.
However, everyone in the family was waiting to split the Huo family’s assets. No one came to visit at all.
As for Huo Zhong and Lu Weijian, the butler couldn’t blame them. After all, those two young masters had never grown up in the Huo family and hadn’t received much kindness from the Huo family.
Seeing that Old Master Huo’s health had only improved today, the butler was overjoyed. However, the old master did not want to drink any more medicine. The butler was anxious.
“Have some more, Old Master.”
“Take it down and see if they’re here,” Old Master Huo urged the butler.
The butler immediately said, “I’ll go and take a look.”
He quickly walked out and finally welcomed the four guests outside. “Mr. Lu, Young Master Zhong, Young Master Weijian, Miss Su, please come in.”
The four of them followed him to Old Master Huo’s room. Old Master Huo’s withered and old face lit up.
“Grandpa Huo.”
“Grandpa.”
